A416 Production Guarantee Notwithstanding Article A415 (Performance Bond), the Producer shall not be required to post as security a cash bond or letter of credit, but shall instead be entitled to provide UBCP with a Production Guarantee from an Approved Production Guarantor in the form set out in Appendix “S” (Production Guarantee), provided that the Production Guarantee

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

21 is accompanied by a Security Agreement (Appendix “J”) or a Distributor’s Assumption Agreement (Appendix “I”) from an Approved Distribution Guarantor. The Producer shall give UBCP notice no later than thirty (30) days prior to the start of principal photography of its intention to provide a Production Guarantee. Only an Approved Distribution Guarantor (see Article A416(b)) shall be eligible to provide a Distribution Guarantee. A Distribution Guarantee shall be in the form set out in Appendix “T” (Distribution Guarantee). Non-Approved Distribution Guarantors may provide a Distributor’s Assumption Agreement as set out in Appendix “I”.

The following process for Approved Production Guarantors and Approved Distribution Guarantors will not impact the process of qualification for Sideletter No. 2. For clarity, the procedure for inclusion on Sideletter No. 2 is separate from the following qualification process. (a) An Approved Production Guarantor shall mean an entity (i) that the CMPA confirms by written notice to be a Member in Good Standing; (ii) that has maintained a permanent active entity with established offices and staff for the previous four (4) years, and has produced or financed the production of at least four (4) theatrical motion pictures or twenty-six (26) hours of television under this agreement or its predecessors; (iii) that has had a good track record for payment of UBCP members, excluding minor infractions; and (iv) with respect to an application for Approved Production Guarantor status, UBCP shall take into consideration the Producer’s production record with ACTRA and the Union des Artistes. (b) An Approved Distribution Guarantor shall mean an entity (i) that has maintained a permanent active entity with established offices and staff for the previous six (6) years, and has produced or financed the production of at least eight (8) theatrical motion pictures or fifty-two (52) hours of television under this agreement or its predecessors; (ii) that has had a good track record for payment of UBCP members, excluding minor infractions; and (iii) that is up to date in its reporting obligations to UBCP and payments to UBCP members. (c) UBCP shall within thirty (30) days communicate in writing as to whether status has been denied. Failure to communicate denial in writing shall result in the Producer’s being granted Approved Guarantor status. The thirty (30) day time limit may be extended by mutual agreement, which agreement shall not be unreasonably denied. When Approved Guarantor status is denied, the Producer shall have recourse to the following appeal procedure. Should status as an Approved Production Guarantor or Approved Distribution Guarantor (provided that such Approved Distribution Guarantor is a Party to this Agreement) be denied, a timely request having been made, the Producer shall have recourse to the following appeal procedure: (i) UBCP shall meet with the Producer within five (5) business days of denial of a request;

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

22

(ii) an appeal committee shall be formed that will consist of a representative of the Union and a representative of the CMPA; (iii) should there be no consensus at this meeting, in the case of a Production Guarantor, the Producer shall post the cash bond or letter of credit required by UBCP as a gesture of good faith pending the outcome of presenting its case in front of the Umpire as set out below; and in the case of a Distribution Guarantor, UBCP shall be entitled to retain the security that it holds pending the decision of the Umpire: (A) The Umpire shall be chosen according to the procedure and list of Arbitrators in Article A1007 (Arbitration Procedure) of this Agreement; (B) The Umpire shall listen to a presentation of the dispute by a representative of each party and will render a decision within two (2) business days of the completion of the presentation by the parties; 1. The presentation of the dispute may be done by conference call or in person at the option of the Umpire. 2. During the presentation the Parties shall present and support their respective positions, including but not limited to providing oral or written information. The Umpire has the option to request written presentations. (C) The decision of the Umpire may be provided in writing or orally, at the discretion of the Umpire. (D) The Parties shall share equally the cost of the Umpire. (iv) should the Umpire rule in the Producer’s favour, UBCP will immediately return the cash bond or letter of credit, with interest if applicable, and accept the alternative security payment agreed to by the Umpire. (d) A list of Approved Production Guarantors and a list of Approved Distribution Guarantors shall be updated on a regular basis and shall be available from UBCP and CMPA offices.

A417 Production Staff (a) The Producer shall not utilize persons employed as members of the Producer's casting or production staff as Performers in any Productions on which they also render other services without express consent of the Union. However, the Union will not unreasonably withhold a waiver to accommodate the legitimate production necessities of the Producer. (b) The following are exceptions to the above: (i) union members; (ii) animal handlers (appearing in a scene in which they handle animals); (iii) Performer-Directors, Performer-Writers, Performer-Producers, or Performer-Production Staff engaged by written contract as such prior to the commencement of principal photography of the Production; (iv) the exigencies of the Production which requires immediate action.

A419 Provision of Video If requested by the Union in writing, the Producer shall provide to the Union (in a timely manner, but in any event no earlier than the date on which the Production is first broadcast anywhere in the world) a video cassette recording of the Production at the Union's sole cost and expense. The Union shall only utilize such video for internal purposes and such video shall not be duplicated or provided to any person (whether an employee or otherwise affiliated with the Union) except as required to administer this Agreement.

A420 Notification of Injury The Producer shall advise the Union in writing at the earliest opportunity of any injury to a Performer on set or on location, which injury requires medical attention at a clinic or hospital. The Producer will provide the Union with all WorkSafeBC Form 7’s and Accident/Near Miss Investigation Reports that relate to injuries/near misses involving Performers engaged under this agreement within five (5) days of being provided to WorkSafeBC. The Union shall maintain the confidentiality of such forms and reports.

A421 Producer to Indemnify Performer The Producer shall indemnify the Performer against all legal costs and any judgment arising out of a performance based upon a script supplied to him/her by the Producer and performed by the Performer as directed by the Producer, provided the Performer cooperates with the Producer in both notifying the Producer of any threatened action and of the commencement of any proceedings, and in the defense of any action; and further provided that the Performer makes no admission of liability without the prior authority of the Producer.

A422 Union Representation: Upon request of a Performer, the Producer shall allow a Union representative to be present at any investigatory meeting between the Performer and a representative of the Producer which may lead to the discipline of the Performer. The foregoing shall not apply if the purpose of the meeting is to advise the Performer of any disciplinary action determined prior to the meeting. The Union representative shall not obstruct the investigatory process.

ARTICLE A5 - OBLIGATIONS OF THE UNION AND PERFORMERS

A501 Professional Conduct The Union undertakes to require and maintain professional conduct from Performers engaged to perform under the provisions of this Agreement. In the event that unprofessional conduct of one or more Union members engaged under the provisions of this Agreement jeopardizes the day's production, the member or members, subject to the Grievance Procedure, may be found to be in breach of this Agreement and may be directed by a duly-appointed Arbitrator to provide compensation.

A502 Performers to Report Performers shall report to the Producer or his/her designate before leaving the studio or location following the completion of scheduled work. Except as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, the Performer's workday ends after s/he is out of makeup and costume, unless asked to remain beyond that time by the Producer or his/her designate. The Performer shall sign a Performers Time Report as provided in Article A706 (Performers Time Report) and shall ensure that a representative of the Producer also signs the same record. In the event of a dispute, the Performer shall report such dispute to a Union steward or the Union office. Should the Producer require the services of the Performer for a further period of time, the Performer shall accept such further engagement, provided it does not conflict with some previously arranged engagement.

A503 The Union to Appoint Steward The Union may, as the occasion demands, appoint an in-cast steward or designate an employee or other Union representative to undertake stewarding functions. Such steward(s) shall carry out duties as required by the Union, including: (a) Verify that all Performers are qualified to work by membership in the Union or a work permit issued by the Union. (b) Receive and, where possible, adjust complaints and grievances of Performers. (c) Generally enforce and administer the provisions of this Agreement at the studio or on-location. (d) Ensure that the Performers Time Report (referred to in A706 (Performers Time Report) and A502 (Performers to Report)) is maintained for Performers and Background Performers. Upon prior notice to the Producer, the appointed steward shall be permitted to visit any portion of the business office, studio or shooting location necessary for the proper conduct of the business of the Union during business or working hours. It is agreed that such access shall not interfere with the Performers' ability to perform or unreasonably disrupt the operation and/or administration of the Production.

A504 Performer Responsibilities A Performer shall at all times report to the set or location ready to work at the time of his/her Call. The Performer is required to know his/her lines of the scenes listed on his/her call sheet at the time of arriving on the set or at the location. Performers will at all times comply with the reasonable requests and instructions of the Producer or his/her representative. The Performer will be reasonably familiar with the terms of this Agreement. It is the responsibility of the Performer to identify to the Union Steward any

perceived breach of this Agreement whenever such breach is considered to occur in order that the Union Steward may give the Producer the opportunity to remedy such perceived breach at the earliest opportunity in the spirit of this Agreement.

A505 Performer to Advise Producer of Inability to Work The Performer must advise the Producer at the earliest opportunity of any injury and or any inability to fulfill contracted obligations.

A506 Prohibition of Still Photographs On Set The Performer may not take, or cause to be taken, still pictures on the set or location, without the full knowledge and prior consent of the Producer.

ARTICLE A6 - QUALIFICATION OF PERFORMERS

A601 Work Permits (a) In accordance with A401 (Preference of Engagement), preference of engagement shall be given to Union Members. However, after making reasonable efforts to comply and having established that a person who is not a Member of the Union is required in a Production, then application shall be made for a work permit at the Union office, on an appropriate work permit application form supplied by the Union, at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the commencement of work. The following procedure will apply for the issuance of work permits: (i) Subject to the other provisions of this Article, when a work permit is issued to a Performer who is a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant and is not a Member or Member in good standing of the Union, the fee for such work permit shall be the amount authorized by the Performer on the work permit form for each week of recorded performance for which the Canadian Performer is engaged. (ii) Subject to the other provisions of this Article, when a work permit is issued to a Performer who is not a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant and not a Member of the Union, the fee for such work permit shall be two hundred twenty-five dollars ($225.00) for the first week and one hundred seventy-five dollars ($175.00) for each subsequent week of recorded performance for which the non-Canadian Performer is engaged.

Note: For purposes of clarification, a "week" as used in this A601 (Work Permits) is understood to be seven (7) consecutive days, commencing from the Performer's first contracted day.

(b) In addition to the foregoing, the UBCP and the Producers agree to the following principles: (i) The UBCP's past practice with regard to the numbers of permits issued will continue;

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

26

(ii) The UBCP will consider requests for work permits, promptly, reasonably and in good faith, managed by a single point of contact in regions covered by the UBCP's jurisdiction; ("promptly" means within three (3) business days from the date in which the Producer provides all the necessary documentation and information). (iii) Work permits will not be unreasonably withheld. (iv) Canadian Performers will be given preference of audition and engagement. (v) To give meaning to this principle, Producers commit themselves to real and bona fide casting sessions for UBCP members in a professional audition environment consistent with good industry standards. (vi) The Producer shall, at the earliest opportunity, meet with UBCP to review and discuss cast requirements of Production.

A602 Reciprocal Agreements The contracting of members of other Performers unions by the Producer shall be governed by any Reciprocal Agreements between the Union and the other organization.

A603 Engagement of Non-Canadians (a) In order to maintain a permanent Canadian film and television production industry capable of producing high quality Canadian Productions for the use of audiences in Canada and elsewhere, the Producer agrees that the progressive development of a pool of Canadian talent of all kinds should be encouraged. (b) The Producer agrees that Canadian Performers should be given the opportunity to play leading and challenging Roles in all areas of film and television production. (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of A604 (Theatrical Production) and A605 (Television Programs), this Article may not apply, at the absolute discretion of the Union, in the instance of an "on-location production" which is being undertaken in Canada by a non-resident production company. However, the Producer agrees that all other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall apply in all respects to such "on-location production".

A604 Theatrical Production The following procedures shall govern the issuance of work permits for non-Canadian Performers in Theatrical Productions: (a) (i) One (1) non-Canadian may be engaged for a Theatrical Production, and (ii) A second (2nd) non-Canadian may be engaged only if a Canadian Performer receives billing that is not less than the second (2nd) most prominent cast billing, and such Canadian Performer is one of the two highest paid Performers in the cast. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of A604(a) of this Article, the Union recognizes that it may be necessary in certain Theatrical Productions for the Producer to allocate billing to one Performer and compensation to a different Performer. In such circumstances, the Producer may make application, pursuant to A112 (Enabling Provision) to the Union of the Union for consideration of such requirements. The application shall include the script, proposed Roles, billing and compensation for the Canadian Performers named in the application and such

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

27

other documentation as may reasonably be required by the Union. All required documentation and the oral submissions, if any, from the applicant shall be considered confidential communications. The decision of the Union shall be made and communicated to the applicant as promptly as possible in the circumstances. (c) Additional work permits may be issued for Performers in a work category other than Principal Actor where the Performer's engagement is entirely outside Canada. The Union agrees that such work permits shall not be unreasonably withheld. (d) In the event the production of a Program requires one or more Roles for which an unusual physical skill or physical attribute are necessary and such requirements cannot be filled by the application of the above provisions, application may be made to the Business Representative of the Union for additional work permit(s). It is understood that such an application shall not be considered if the Producer has not made reasonable efforts to comply with A604(a) of this Article.

A605 Television Programs With respect to a television Program or Series, the Production shall be governed by the following provisions with respect to the engagement of non-Canadian Performers: (a) Variety Special or Series The total number of permits issued to non-Canadian talent shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the contracted Principal Actors, Variety Principals, or Specialty Acts. Non-Canadian Performers shall not be engaged in any other performance category. (b) Single Drama Program (other than a Theatrical Production) The total number of work permits shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the Principal Performers to a maximum of two (2) per Program. Non-Canadian Performers shall not be engaged in any other Performance category in the Program. (c) Drama Series For continuing Roles in a drama Series, the number of permits issued to non- Canadian talent shall not exceed one (1) in four (4) of the total number of Principal Actors contracted for the Series. With regard to "special guest stars", the Series total of non-Canadian talent engaged shall not exceed fifty percent (50%) of the total number of "special guest stars" contracted. (d) Quiz, Panel, and Game Shows In no case shall the Host, Master of Ceremonies, or Moderator be a non-Canadian Performer. No more than one (1) Performer in four (4) of the regular panel may be a non-Canadian Performer. Contestants or guests will be issued work permits. (e) Talk, Interview and Public Affairs Programs or Series The engagement of non-Canadians shall be limited to guest appearances. Non- Canadians shall not be engaged as Hosts, except for public affairs Programs or Series in which specialized or expert knowledge is required. (f) Additional work permits may be issued to Performers in television Programs or Series in a work category other than Principal Actor where the Performer's engagement is entirely outside Canada. The Union agrees that such work permits shall not be unreasonably withheld.

A606 Co-productions and Non-Canadian Content Productions (a) When it is established that a Production is a co-production governed by an Official Co-production Treaty between Canada and another country (or countries), the parties to this Agreement recognize that the application of A604 (Theatrical Production) or A605 (Television Programs) may be subject to the terms of the relevant International Co-production Treaty. (b) In the event that an entirely privately financed Production is to be produced in Canada, the foregoing provisions of A604 (Theatrical Production) or A605 (Television Programs) may be modified by the Union. In such instances, the Producer shall be required to provide the Union prior to commencement of production with information and supporting documentary evidence which establish that: (i) the Producer has not and will not apply for certification of such Production by the Canadian Audio Visual Certification Office ("CAVCO") or Canadian Content under the CRTC; (ii) neither Telefilm Canada nor any provincial film funding agency, or their successor organizations have any direct or indirect financial participation in the Production; (iii) no Crown agency or corporation and no public institution has participated in the Production either in the form of a financial participation or by the provision of Production facilities or personnel. (c) In addition, the Producer will be specifically required to provide the Union with a written undertaking that neither the Producer nor any agent or representative of the Producer shall at any time apply for certification by CAVCO or for Canadian Content by the CRTC or to use any other instrument of Canadian tax policy in respect of the production to which a so called Canadian Production would otherwise be entitled. The Union shall file a copy of such written undertaking with CAVCO and the CRTC and with any other relevant body. (d) Finally, the Producer agrees to undertake best efforts to engage Canadian Performers in all Roles in the Production.

A607 Modification of Limitations The limitations on the engagement of non-Canadian Performers in all Productions, as set out in this Article A6 (Qualification of Performers), may be modified by the Union in the case of Productions where non Canadian financiers or licensees contribute, in the aggregate, at least one-third (1/3) of the gross Production budget, and in which the engagement of non-Canadian Performers is a condition of such investment or license, or where there are health and safety considerations. A Producer seeking to take advantage of A607 (Modification of Limitations) shall make written submissions to the Union as soon as possible. Such written request shall contain evidence that the Production meets the criteria of this Article, A607, and may also contain other documents and explanations concerning the requirements of the Production. The Union will respond to such request for a modification, within three (3) business days of the request being submitted by the Producer and such response shall include brief reasons for the Union's decision. A copy of the decision will be sent to the Producer and a designated representative thereof.

29

A608 Notice of Objection In the event that the Producer wishes to dispute the Union's decision as set out in A607 (Modification of Limitations), the Producer has the right to challenge such decision on the grounds that it is not reasonable or not in keeping with standard industry practice, by filing a Notice of Objection ("Notice") which shall set out the particulars upon which the Producer relies in challenging the decision together with any relevant documentation. The following procedure shall be followed in dealing with such dispute: (a) The Notice shall be sent by Fax or delivered by direct courier to the Union Office, and the designated representative of the Producer. (b) The Parties shall agree to a roster of Arbitrators who shall be authorized to hear and determine matters under this Article, A608. The Producers shall nominate four (4) Arbitrators and UBCP shall be entitled to nominate four (4) Arbitrators. The panel will be composed of six (6) Arbitrators with each party having the right to remove one of the four (4) Arbitrators nominated by the other party. If the Parties are unable to agree upon an Arbitrator, either party shall have the right to request the Director of Collective Agreement Arbitration Bureau name a special Arbitrator to deal with such disputes until such time as the parties have been able to agree on such special Arbitrator(s).

The Parties hereby agree to meet six (6) months after the effective date of this Agreement to review implementation and discuss further improvements. In the event issues arise which cannot be resolved, they will be referred to Vince Ready, who will serve as Ombudsman.

(c) The Union shall be allowed two (2) business days from receipt of the Notice, in which to file a response ("Response"), outlining its position together with any relevant documentation. (d) The Parties shall endeavor to settle all outstanding issues arising from the Notice and Response within one (1) business day. Failure to reach a settlement shall entitle the Producer to refer the matter to final and binding arbitration, which shall be governed by the provisions of A10 (Grievance Procedures and Resolution) unless otherwise provided in this Article. (e) In the event the Producer wishes the matter referred to Arbitration, the Notice together with the Response shall be sent to the Arbitrator agreed upon by the parties or named as set out in subparagraph (b) of this Article. Each party shall have the right to submit any relevant documentary evidence including affidavit evidence together with their submissions. (f) The Arbitrator shall conduct a viva voce hearing only if he is satisfied that the issues cannot be fairly dealt with absent such viva voce hearing. The Arbitrator shall hold any hearing within two (2) business days of the matter being referred to Arbitration, and the Arbitrator shall render his/her decision within two (2) business days of such hearing. (g) The Parties agree that time is of the essence with respect to the issues arising in this Article A608 and agree that the time lines herein contained can only be extended with the written consent of both parties.

A609 Preference to Canadian Performers The Producer agrees to undertake best efforts to engage Canadian Performers in all Roles in the Production. "Best efforts" shall be interpreted to mean that Union members and Canadian Performers shall be auditioned in good faith prior to the engagement of non- resident Performers. If a distributor demands the engagement of a particular foreign "star" Performer or lead, the Union shall not unreasonably withhold waivers of this provision.

A610 Requirement to File Contracts All contracts for non-Canadian Performers shall be filed with the Union office within two weeks of execution by the parties. The Producers will not be required to disclose contracts for SAG and AFTRA members. However, the Union will be provided with salary information necessary to administrate Use Fee payments as follows: For example, if there are three SAG/AFTRA members who are paid over $50,000.00, having achieved the cap, then the report will so indicate without naming the actors. As to actors paid less than $50,000.00, the Employers will list them as: “Actor A” with the amount of their salary; “Actor B” with the amount of their salary; and “Actor C” with the amount of their salary, and so on. The names of the SAG/AFTRA members and irrelevant details of their contracts will not be provided.

ARTICLE A10 - GRIEVANCE PROCEDURES AND RESOLUTION

A1001 Statement of Policy The Union and the Producer recognize the desirability of exerting an earnest effort to settle grievances at the earliest possible time consistent with the provisions of this Article. The Union shall make a careful and thorough investigation of a Performer's complaint before submitting it under the grievance procedure in order to ascertain whether, in its opinion, the complaint is reasonably justified under the terms of this Agreement and that there is reasonable ground to believe that the claim is true in fact. No Performer shall be discriminated against for reasonably making a complaint or filing a grievance asserting a violation of this Agreement. There shall be no slowdown, disruption or stoppage of work including strikes or lock-outs.

A1002 Grievance Defined All complaints, discipline, disputes, or questions of the Producer or the Union, as to the interpretation, application, or performance of this Agreement (excluding jurisdictional disputes) or any deal memo, including any question about whether a matter is arbitrable, shall be settled between the Producer directly involved and the duly authorized representative of the Union. Any party to the grievance may participate in grievance meetings.

A1003 Scope of a Grievance (a) The parties agree that grievances may arise concerning differences between them respecting the application, administration, interpretation or an alleged violation of this Agreement, or any deal memorandum or other form of contract, including a question about whether or not a matter is subject to arbitration. (b) The procedure for resolving a grievance shall be the Grievance Procedure in this Article. All discussions between the parties during the grievance procedure are without prejudice and inadmissible in any subsequent arbitration hearing. (c) Performers exercising their rights under the provisions of this Article do so without prejudice to their relationship with the Producer.

A1004 Settlement "at the scene" (a) A complaint of a minor nature may be settled at the time of its occurrence by the Union Steward and the authorized representative of the Producer. No dispute settlements at this level shall have the weight of precedent unless the parties have reviewed and ratified it, in writing. (b) In the event that the complaint is not resolved in the manner described, above, either party to the complaint may initiate a grievance.

A1005 Step 1 of the Grievance Procedure In the first step of the Grievance Procedure, every effort to settle the dispute shall be made by the aggrieved Performer and his/her supervisor within ten (10) calendar days of the occurrence of the event(s) upon which the grievance is based; or within ten (10) calendar days after the facts underlying the grievance became known or should have reasonably become known by the aggrieved party. The aggrieved Performer has the right to be accompanied by a steward or any other authorized Union representative. Any dispute settlement reached at this meeting shall be binding upon the Performer and/or the Producer, so long as this resolution does not violate this Agreement. No dispute settlements at this level shall have the weight of precedent unless the parties have reviewed and ratified it, in writing.

A1006 Step 2 of the Grievance Procedure To be valid, grievances must be filed within thirty (30) calendar days of the occurrence of the event(s) upon which the grievance is based; or within thirty (30) calendar days after the facts underlying the grievance became known or should have reasonably become known by the aggrieved party. A grievance is filed by delivering to the other party a written statement of grievance which shall set forth in detail the basis of the dispute, the contractual provisions alleged to be violated, the material facts, the position of the grievor, and the relief sought. If either the Producer or the Union fail to agree to meet within fourteen (14) calendar days after the receipt of the statement of grievance, or they do meet and fail to resolve the grievance, then either Party may proceed to final and binding arbitration pursuant to Article 1007 (Arbitration Procedure). In the event that the Union attempts to deliver a grievance to a Producer at the address last provided by such Producer to the Union and the Producer is no longer at that address, the grievance will be considered filed for purposes of this provision. However, no default shall be entered against such Producer and the aforementioned fourteen (14) calendar day period will not commence until the grievance is in fact received by the Producer.

A1007 Arbitration Procedure If the grievance procedure fails to resolve the grievance, either party to this Agreement may proceed to final and binding arbitration by delivering to the other party a written demand for arbitration which shall set forth in detail the basis of the dispute, the contractual provisions alleged to be violated, the material facts, the position of the claimant, and the relief sought. Such demand must be served not later than thirty (30) days after the filing of the grievance or the grievance will be waived, unless the parties mutually agree to extend the time limits. Within fourteen (14) calendar days following service of the demand for arbitration, or within such additional time as the parties

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

35

mutually agree upon in writing, the parties will attempt to mutually agree upon an Arbitrator selected from the following list of Arbitrators:

Mark Brown Michael Fleming Stan Lanyon David C. McPhillips Julie Nichols

If the parties cannot agree upon one of the foregoing Arbitrators, the Arbitrator shall be selected on a rotation commencing with the first arbitration being assigned to the first listed Arbitrator, the second arbitration being assigned to the second listed Arbitrator and so on. The rotation shall be applied to each individual Producer. An Arbitrator named on the list of Arbitrators of the BC Arbitrator's Association may at any time, by mutual agreement, be substituted for an Arbitrator on the foregoing list. If possible, the date of the arbitration hearing will be within fourteen (14) calendar days from the date the Arbitrator is selected. At the conclusion of the arbitration the Arbitrator shall render a decision on the evidence and arguments presented which shall be final and binding on the parties, including the grievor and fully enforceable in a Court of competent jurisdiction. The Arbitrator shall present a written decision unless the parties to the arbitration mutually agree that a written decision is not necessary. The Arbitrator's written decision shall be issued within thirty (30) calendar days from the date final arbitration briefs, if any, are submitted, or the last day of the arbitration hearing, whichever is later.

A1008 Expedited Arbitration In lieu of A1007 (Arbitration Procedure) the parties to this agreement may pursue expedited arbitration pursuant to the British Columbia Labour Relations Code, section 104, in lieu of the Arbitration Procedure set forth above, and utilizing the Arbitrators listed in A1007 (Arbitration Procedure) above, to the extent possible.

A1009 Arbitrator's Authority The Arbitrator shall have all necessary powers to determine the real issue in dispute according to the merits and, if appropriate, award monetary payments, adjustments, or damages consistent herewith. The Arbitrator shall not have the power to amend, modify or effect a change in any of the provisions of this Agreement, award punitive damages, award money damages to the Union or the Producers, or to determine jurisdictional disputes.

A1010 Costs The Arbitrator's fees and a court reporter's fees shall be borne equally by both Parties. Expenses of witnesses, however, shall be borne by the Party who calls them.

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

53

A2603 Double Contracting Except as provided for Stunt Actors, the contracted fee in A2602 (Performance and Fee) shall be exclusive of any performance in a residual category provided by a Stunt Performer as a Principal Actor, Actor, Singer, Dancer, etc. If the Stunt Performer, in performing the stunt, is only doubling photographically for another Performer, the contracted fee in A2602 (Performance and Fee) above is applicable. However, if the Stunt Performer, in addition to performing the stunt, also enacts the role of the "character" involved in the stunt (with the above noted exception for a Stunt Actor role), an additional performance fee applicable to the appropriate performance category (e.g., Principal Actor, etc…) shall be paid to the Stunt Performer. Incidental vocalization to enhance the presentation of the stunt performance shall not be counted in determining whether a performer meets the definition of Principal Actor or Actor.

A2604 Required Details of Contract Provided Prior to any stunt performance, a contract will be signed between the Performer and the Producer specifying: (a) The precise nature of the stunt to be performed; (b) The Performer's agreement to perform the stunt as specified; (c) The amount of the fee for each performance of the stunt; (d) The nature of the agreement between the parties concerning indemnity.

A2605 Audition The Producer may audition a Stunt Performer in order to establish the suitability of the Stunt Performer for photographic reasons, or reasons relating to an acting performance. However, a Performer so auditioned shall not be required to perform the intended stunt on a trial basis for Audition purposes; nor may such Audition be construed to be a consultation call as outlined in A2601 (Consultation).

A2606 Creating and Engineering Stunts - Stunt Coordinator The Union will provide a list of Stunt Performers who have worked as Stunt Coordinators. The Producer agrees to consider Stunt Coordinators from this list prior to employing Stunt Coordinators from any other source. The creating and engineering of stunts, and the engagement and supervision of Stunt Performers shall be governed by the following: (a) Actual work involved in accomplishing the stunt, including engineering and planning details, shall be satisfactory to the Stunt Performer, particularly when the Performer has not been retained to coordinate the stunt as well as perform in it. (b) Double Contracting: Stunt Coordinators who perform on-camera the same day(s) they provide, or are contracted to provide, coordinating services, shall receive no less than the minimum daily fee for a Stunt Coordinator, plus the minimum daily fee for a Stunt Performer, for that day. The Stunt Performer fee(s), including stunt adjustment and overtime, shall be subject to Use Fees and shall be noted on a separate Performer contract. Additional time rates, i.e., overtime, travel, etc., may be paid at the Stunt Performer rate. A Stunt Coordinator shall not perform a stunt unless the performance of such stunt is authorized or approved by the Producer or by an authorized representative of the Producer, before the stunt is performed.

54

(c) Stunt adjustments must be approved by an authorized representative of the Producer before the stunt is performed. (d) No Stunt Coordinator may provide services for more than one Producer on the same day without the express written consent of each production, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. (For example, it is not unreasonable to withhold consent when exclusivity has been contracted for with the Stunt Coordinator.)

A2607 Safety and Protection of all Performers (a) No Performer shall be required to work with an animal which a reasonable person would regard as dangerous in the circumstances unless a qualified animal handler or trainer is present on the set or location (see Article A2007 (Use of Animals)). (b) No Performer shall be rigged with any type of explosive charge of any nature whatsoever unless a qualified special effects person is present on the set or location. All Performers rigged with an explosive charge (e.g., squibs) shall be considered undertaking a Risk Performance. (c) All reasonable requests and requirements for safety equipment shall be complied with by the Producer or the Producer's representatives on the set or location. (d) Equipment provided by the Producer, e.g., autos, cycles, wagons, etc., shall be in suitable repair for the safe and proper performance of the stunt. Persons involved in the planning and/or execution of a stunt shall be entitled to inspect any vehicle, mechanical device and/or equipment to be used in a stunt on the day prior to its use, provided it is available. In any event, such persons shall have reasonable time for such inspections. No payment is due for any such inspection. (e) Stunt Performers shall have the right to negotiate for additional compensation for any stunt work required which is over and above that to which the Producer and Stunt Performers originally agreed. (f) An emergency medical care person, visually identifiable, shall be present on any set or location where hazardous work is planned. The Producer shall ensure that the person is properly equipped, establish the capabilities of nearby medical facilities and provide transportation and communication with these facilities. (g) When a Production requires scripted or non-scripted Stunts, a Stunt Coordinator shall be engaged and present on the set where appropriate in accordance with customary industry practice. No Performer without requisite training and/or experience shall be required to perform a Stunt without an opportunity for prior consultation by the Performer with such qualified Stunt Coordinator or such other individual with the requisite experience and/or expertise in the case that a Stunt Coordinator is not required. (h) Producers shall instruct Stunt Coordinators to notify the Union of scripted Stunts involving non-Stunt Performers, which notice shall include the date, and location, to the extent known. (i) The Performer's consent shall be a requisite precondition to performing Stunts or other hazardous activity. This consent shall be limited to the Stunt or activity described to the Performer at the time consent was given. They do not have to agree; the Performer may always request a double.

55

A2608 Stunt Driving Guidelines Where the Producer requires any of the following conditions to occur, a vehicle driver shall qualify as a Stunt Performer: (a) When any or all wheels leave the driving surface. (b) When the tire traction is broken, e.g., skids, slides, etc. (c) Impaired vision - where the driver's vision is substantially impaired by: (i) dust; (ii) spray (when driving through water, mud, etc.); (iii) blinding lights; (iv) restrictive covering of the windshield; (v) smoke; or (vi) any other condition restricting the driver's normal vision. (d) The speed of the vehicle will be greater than normally safe for the conditions of the driving surface, or when other conditions such as obstacles or difficulty of terrain will exist or off-road driving, other than normal low-speed driving for which the vehicle was designed, will occur. (e) Where any aircraft, fixed-wing or helicopter, is flown in close proximity to the vehicle creating a hazardous driving condition. (f) Where the driver is required to drive in a position substantially different from a normal driving position (e.g., when the driver must drive while lying across the seat, or from the back seat). (g) Where high speed or close proximity of two (2) or more vehicles will create conditions dangerous to the driver, passengers, by-standers, or the vehicle. (h) Where for safety reasons, a Performer is doubled on-camera as driver or passenger in a vehicle, the double shall qualify as a Stunt Performer.

A2609 Insurance for Stunt Performers/Coordinators The Producer will extend its General Liability Insurance policy or like policy to Stunt Performers and Stunt Coordinators.

A2610 Stunt Doubling for Females and Visible Minorities Where a Stunt Performer doubles for a role which is identifiable as female or a visible minority, and the race and/or sex of the double is/are also identifiable, every effort shall be made to cast qualified persons of the same sex and/or race involved. When the Stunt Performer is not so identifiable, the Producer shall use best efforts to increase the employment of women and visible minorities for such Stunts.

A2611 Scripted Stunts Except for bona fide emergencies, no Background Performer hired as such may be engaged for scripted Stunts on any production if, on that day, the Background Performer was engaged as a Background Performer in the same Production. A Stunt is a non- scripted Stunt when not called for or contemplated by the action in the script, and not pre- planned, pre-conceived or deliberately omitted for the purpose of evading this rule.

available to the Minor and his/her parent/guardian a qualified mental health professional (psychiatrist, psychologist, social worker) to assist the Minor in preparing for participating in any such depiction. A Minor shall not be present during such scenes unless it is essential for the Minor to be on-camera.

A2703 Role of Parent/Guardian (a) Parent/Guardian Responsibilities The parent/guardian must be familiar with the conditions set forth in Article A27 Minors. (b) Parent/Guardian/Chaperone must be Present The parent/guardian/chaperone must be on the set, has the right to be within sight and sound of the Minor and is responsible for the Minor at all times while the Minor is on the set. It is recommended that a monitor that provides both audio and video feeds be made available for the parent/guardian/chaperone to view filming of a scene when circumstances restrict the number of people on set. The parent/guardian/chaperone to Minor ratio shall be no greater than:

AGE OF NUMBER OF MINORS PER MINOR PARENT/GUARDIAN/CHAPERONE 15 days - 5 yrs One (1) 6 to 11 yrs Three (3) 12 to 16 yrs Five (5)

One parent/guardian may be designated for up to a maximum of three (3) of their own Minors provided that the parent/guardian is working as a background performer directly in the scene with their Minors.

The parent/guardian and Producer may apply in writing to vary the ratios as set out above pursuant to Article A2708. (c) Parent/Guardian must Accompany Minor when Traveling Notwithstanding A2703(b), the parent/guardian must accompany the Minor when traveling to a location in which the Minor will be housed overnight.

A chaperone or proxy, not being the legal guardian of the Minor, has no legal authority to provide any consent on behalf of a Minor. Accordingly, the chaperone or proxy's assumption of responsibilities and liabilities does not apply to paragraphs A2702(a)(ii), A2703(d), (e) and (f) and the parent/guardian declaration. (j) Additional Adults for Multiple Minors/Infants When more than one Minor/infant of a parent/guardian is employed on the same production at the same time but at separate locations, it is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to ensure that there is one adult to care for each Minor/infant.

The Producer and the Union will each use best efforts to achieve consensus in a timely manner on any exceptions outlined above. The Producer will transmit such requests via email or telephone call to the dedicated UBCP Representative (“the Union Representative”). In his/her absence, the Union Representative shall designate an individual to address such requests.

The Producer shall identify any such request as “Urgent -- Minor Variance Request” in the email subject line or when calling UBCP reception. The request must come in the form of Appendix U - Request for Variance Form and will contain the name of the Minor, the age of the Minor, the name of the Production, type of Production (e.g., feature film or television series), the name of the contact person for the Production and his/her contact information, the nature of the variance sought, the relevant provision(s) of the Agreement and any supporting documentation or information.

The Union hereby pledges to devote its urgent attention to such requests. The Union will respond to requests containing all relevant information, within 24 hours, with the exception of those requests that are received on a day preceding a weekend, in which case the Union will have one (1) business day to respond. If the Union does not respond in the stipulated timeframes, the variance request will be deemed granted.

In the event the Producer and Union Representative are unable to reach agreement, on the request, the Producer may appeal the matter to the Director of Film, Television & New Media. If the parties are still unable to reach an agreement, they agree that such matters may be referred to adjudicator/umpires Brian Foley (604) 488-0067, Irene Holden (604) 691-2555 [email protected] or Joy Bischoff (604) 676- 1574 joybischoff@.net (in that order based on availability) for determination.

All parties agree that these matters are urgent and the goal of this procedure is to ensure that the Producer obtains a determination of its request in sufficient time to allow for planning the Production schedule. To that end, the adjudicator/umpire shall have the flexibility to determine the procedure best suited to ensuring the rendition of a timely decision, including whether to convene a hearing or whether to act solely upon written submissions. The adjudicator/umpire may hear the matter via telephone (or Internet-

based technology), rather than in person, and he/she may require that the parties submit documentation electronically.

The adjudicator/umpire shall render an expedited decision. It is expected that the adjudicator/umpire shall render a decision immediately after the hearing and/or reading the submissions, but in no event shall the adjudicator/umpire render a decision more than 24 hours after the close of the hearing or submission of the matter. The adjudicator/umpire may render a decision orally and without the necessity of written submissions or briefs. The adjudicator/umpire’s decision is binding.

The Union and the Producer shall each bear its own fees, costs and expenses of this process and the parties shall share equally the costs of the adjudicator/umpire.

A2709 Monies in Trust: The Producer shall report to the Public Guardian and Trustee all earnings of Minors under the age of fifteen (15) years of age in every pay period, by remitting a copy of the Minor’s pay statement.

If the Minor's income or total earnings per Production (including re-use or residual payments) exceeds two thousand dollars ($2,000.00), the Producer and a Payer shall deduct twenty-five percent (25%) of any subsequent gross payments of income and twenty-five percent (25%) of any re-use or residual payments and in every pay period remit it to the Public Guardian and Trustee of British Columbia in trust for that Minor, or to either of the following as may be approved and directed by the Public Guardian and Trustee of British Columbia.

(a) a trust for the benefit of the Minor, (b) an account for the benefit of the Minor as may be approved by a court of competent jurisdiction.

A remittance shall include a copy of the pay statement of re-use or residual income.

If funds are paid to the Public Guardian and Trustee, the Public Guardian and Trustee will pay interest on the funds and shall be entitled to charge the same commission for the administration of the funds as funds held in trust under Section 6 of the Public Guardian and Trustee Act and as prescribed by Regulations to the Public Guardian and Trustee Act.

ARTICLE C4 - PARTICIPATION IN DISTRIBUTORS' GROSS REVENUE OPTION

C401 Percentages of Non-Refundable Advance The Producer may pay, at the time of production, one of the following percentages of Net Fee as a Non- Refundable Advance against the following Use Fees based on Performer Participation in Distributors' Gross Revenue:

Option Non-Refundable Advance Participation in Distributors' Gross Number (% of Net Fees) Revenue 1 100.0% 3.6% 2 75.0% 4.6% 3 50.0% 5.6% 4 25.0% 6.6%

C402 Limitation of Selection of 25% Advance (a) The only circumstances which will allow a Producer to select Option #4 above, and therefore make a twenty-five percent (25%) Advance payment under Article C401 (Percentages of Non-Refundable Advance) is if there are only exclusively Canadian pre-sale(s) as of the first day of principal photography of the Production, which pre-sale(s) includes one of the Declared Uses, as defined in Article C101 (Distribution Rights). Unless the Production pre-sale(s) fulfills these conditions the Producer shall not be entitled to exercise Option #4. In the event that prior to the completion of principal photography of a Production or a Series there is a non-Canadian sale, the Producer shall immediately and retroactively increase the Advance payment to at least fifty percent (50%). Where the Producer is entitled to exercise Option #4, they must complete the declaration in Appendix “O” (Declaration Respecting Option for 25% Advance).

(b) A Producer who exercises Option #4 without strictly fulfilling all of the foregoing conditions shall be liable to pay damages to the Union in respect of the Performers affected, based on the difference in the Participation Advance payment calculated at the rate of seventy-five percent (75%) (Option #2), less the Participation Advance payment actually made, and the Performers concerned shall continue to be entitled to participate in Distributors' Gross Revenue derived from the Production at the rate provided in option #4, i.e., 6.6%.

C403 Participation in Gross - Participation Advance After the Producer has elected to make Participation Advance Payments as set out in C401 (Percentages of Non-Refundable Advance), Performers shall be paid, as Use Fees,

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

90

an aggregate amount equal to the applicable percentage of Distributors' Gross Revenue, provided that no amounts shall be paid until such time as the Aggregate Participation Advance is recouped from the Distributor's Gross Revenue.

C404 Limit on Individual Participation Advance The parties acknowledge that the maximum amount of an individual Performer's Participation Advance shall be fifty percent (50%) of the Gross Fees payable to such Performer in respect of the Production.

C405 Calculation of Aggregate Participation Advance For purposes of calculating additional Use Fees, the Aggregate Participation Advance shall be the total of all the Participation Advance payments paid to Performers on a Production, with the following cap or limitation: No Performer shall be credited with an Participation Advance payment greater than the amount equal to the number of days of principal photography multiplied by twenty (20) times the minimum daily fee for a Principal Actor as set out in Article B101 (Minimum Daily Fees (Per Performer/Per Program)).

C406 Payment of Use Fees Additional Use Fees shall be payable to the Union and shall be distributed to Performers pursuant to the provisions of Article C409 (Distribution of Payments). Although the individual Participation Advance payments in excess of the limitation specified in Articles C404 (Limit on Individual Participation Advance) and C405 (Calculation of Aggregate Participation Advance) payable to individual Performers may not be credited to the Aggregate Participation Advance, the Union shall have the right to take into account such excess Participation Advance payment to an individual Performer when determining the allocation that will be made to the said Performer under Article C409 (Distribution of Payments).

C407 Distributors' Gross Revenue shall mean all monies derived in any manner whatsoever from the distribution of the Production, including through the sale, license or other like means of distribution of the Production and shall be calculated before or simultaneously with any other gross participants from first dollar, without deductions of expenses of any kind. In the case of animated Productions, Distributors' Gross Revenue shall include only revenues from licenses of the English Language version of the Productions. For greater certainty: (a) Monies derived through the exploitation of ancillary, allied and underlying rights and like rights, such as merchandising, novelization and sequel rights, shall not be included in Distributors' Gross Revenue. (b) Distributors' Gross Revenues shall also mean all monies received by those Distributors with which the Producer has entered into a Distribution Agreement (the "Head Distributor") in respect of the Production. The Distributors' Gross Revenues shall also include all monies received by sub-distributors which: (i) are related to or which do not have an arm's length relationship with, the Producer or the Head Distributor; or (ii) have an obligation to report and remit Revenue directly to the Producer or Head Distributor.

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

91

(c) Pre-sale revenues shall be included in Distributors' Gross Revenue. A pre-sale means the grant of a license or rights to utilize a Production, prior to production, to an end user, for consideration. The amount of verified distribution Advances, i.e., payments received by a Producer from a Distributor, shall not be included in Distributor's Gross for the purpose of triggering the payment of Use Fees to Performers, however, a Distributor shall not be entitled to deduct the amount of the Advance from the amount of the Distributor's Gross Revenues, for the purpose of the calculation of Use Payments. (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributors' Gross Revenue derived from the sale or rental of Compact Devices shall be deemed to be equal to twenty percent (20%) of the wholesale selling price of such Compact Devices provided that in the event that the wholesale selling price is at or less than the typical sell-through price to wholesalers (currently thirty dollars ($30.00) per unit), the deemed Distributors' Gross shall be ten percent (10%). (e) The Producer, at the time of the Production, will make a reasonable allocation of revenues for the purposes of determining which portion thereof is attributable to the Declared Use and/or prepayment and which portion thereof is attributable to the Gross Distributors' Revenue upon which Use Payments are based, subject to the right of the Union to refer any difference to Arbitration under Article A10 (Grievance Procedures and Resolution). If, as a result of this allocation, Use Fees become payable from the Distributor's Gross Revenue, the said Fees shall be payable to the Union at the time of Production. (f) Packaging It is acknowledged by the parties that distributors may seek to diversify their risks by packaging more successful and less successful Productions. Where Productions are packaged together for the purposes of distribution, the parties shall allocate the revenue attributable to each individual Production, subject to the right of the Union to refer any difference to the Arbitration under ArticleA10 (Grievance Procedures and Resolution). (g) Official Treaty Co-productions (i) While Distributors' Gross Revenue includes revenue from all sources on a worldwide basis, in respect of Official Treaty Co-productions certified by Telefilm or by any successor organization, the Distributors' Gross Revenue shall be: (A) all those revenues derived from the distribution of the Official Treaty Co-production in those territories to which the Canadian Co-producer is exclusively entitled to distribution revenues and has no obligation to report or remit revenues to the foreign co- producer; (B) a proportion of those revenues derived from the distribution of the Official Treaty Co-production in those territories in which the Canadian Co-producer is entitled to distribution revenues on some shared basis with its foreign co-producer, which proportion shall be equal to that proportion of revenues agreed by the co-producers to be paid to the Canadian Co-producer from such territories (the "Canadian Share"). The Canadian Share shall be no less than the

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

92

percentage of the total amount of the Production budget financing derived, directly or indirectly, from any Canadian source(s). (ii) Prior to production, the Producer shall disclose the Production's status as an Official Treaty Co-production to the Union, and will provide the following information to the Union: (A) the name and legal status of the Co-producers; (B) the details of the agreement between or among the Co-producers in respect of the manner in which the revenues from the Official Treaty Co-production will be divided between (or among) them, including details of territories to which either Co-producer is exclusively entitled to distribution revenues and has no obligation to report or remit revenues to the other, and any material amendments to the agreement in such respect. (h) If the Producers who is a party to this Agreement negotiate a definition of Distributors' Gross Revenue (or the equivalent) which in some or all aspects is superior to the definition in this Article, with any other trade union or association that bargains collectively on behalf of its members, the definition hereunder shall be amended to reflect the improvement.

C408 Reporting and Payment Procedure (a) The Producer shall deliver to the Union reports setting forth the amount of Distributors' Gross Revenues in respect of the Production, derived in the applicable accounting period. Each report shall be delivered to the Union in the same manner and frequency as the Producer reports to government agencies and/or other financiers, but it shall be no less than semi-annually for the first two (2) years following the first report filed hereunder and annually thereafter. The first report shall be due 60 days following the last date of the first reporting period and the ensuing reports shall be due in the frequency provided above. The first reporting period is the period immediately following the delivery of the Production to the Distributor. The reports will be accompanied by the aggregate Use Payments payable to Performers and an outline of the method of calculation of the said payment. (b) At the request of the Union the Producer will consent to the release of true copies of the reports dealing with Distributors' Gross Revenue, filed with the government agencies and/or other financiers, subject to the right on the part of the Distributor to edit the reports on the grounds that they contain confidential information. (c) The Producer (or Distributor) shall be deemed to hold the aggregate Use Payments in trust for the Performers, from the time that Gross Revenues are recognized, until the disbursement of same to the Union on the due date, i.e., the date that each report is due. In the enforcement of this Article, the Union, subject to its rights as a creditor, shall agree to not hold any Performer of a Producer (or Distributor) liable in negligence, provided the said Performer acts in a bona fide fashion. The Distributors' Gross Revenues shall be recognized when a contract for the sale or conveyance of any rights in a Production is made, but Use payments shall only be payable when the reports are due under this Article C408(a) above.

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

93

(d) If the currency of the Distributors' Gross Revenues is other than the Canadian Dollar, the Use payment shall be calculated at the exchange rate for the said currency, on the basis of the established practice of the Producer or Distributor, which practice shall be disclosed in writing to the Union upon request. If the practice is amended at any time such amendment shall be disclosed to the Union. (e) Payments shall be made to the Union in trust for the Performers concerned. The Union shall be entitled to make a claim of interest on payments received after the due date as provided herein, i.e., the date the reports are due to be filed, at the Prime rate of interest, as of the due date, plus three percent (3%), calculated monthly, which claim shall be enforceable under the terms of this Agreement. (f) When a Producer selects any of the Advance Options the Producer shall deliver to the Union: (i) the calculation of the total amount of Advance payments, certified by the Production Accountant or Controller, and the back up material in this regard; (ii) the first report that is due to the Union pursuant to Article pursuant to this Article C408(a); (iii) the information and Use Fees, if any, payable under C407(e) (Distributors’ Gross Revenue).

C409 Distribution of Payments Use payments shall be distributed to Performers by the Union on the following basis: (a) Units will be assigned to Performers as follows: One (1) unit shall be defined as the minimum fee payable to the lowest rated residual category for one day of work. Performers shall receive units according to the Gross fee paid to that Performer for the production of the Program to a maximum of twenty (20) units per Performer. (b) For each Program, the total revenue will be divided by the total units accumulated by all Performers with respect to the Program involved and therefore a dollar value will be assigned to each unit. The distribution made to each individual Performer will be based on the number of units he has accumulated and the dollar value calculated in the preceding sentence. (c) Stunt Coordinators and Choreographers will participate in units assigned to Performers on the aggregate amount of Distributors’ Gross Revenue and will form part of the ratable distribution to Performers.

ARTICLE C5 - RESIDUALS ADMINISTRATION

C501 Selection of Use Payment Option The election made by the Producer to pay Use Fees under C2 (Individual Use Option) or C3 (Prepayment Options), or C4 (Participation in Distributors' Gross Revenue Option) shall be the same for each Performer engaged on the Production. For clarity, if a Producer elects to Prepay Performers as set out in Article C3 (Prepayment Options), all Performers engaged in respect of the Production shall be entitled to receive the same percentage of fees as a Prepayment. On the other hand, if a Producer elects to make Participation Advance payments as set out in Article C4 (Participation in Distributors' Gross Revenue Option), the Producer must select the same percentage of the Participation Advance and thus provide for the identical rate of participation in the Distributor's Gross Revenue for each Performer on the Production.

C502 Fair Market Value The Producer and/or Distributor shall meet with the Union to determine the fair market value for distribution of a Program should such program be distributed for Use by means of barter, or exchange, or other means for which no charge is made or a nominal fee is charged, or as part of a package of Programs. The Use fees payable to Performers shall be based on such agreed fair market value or as determined under the terms of Article A10 (Grievance Procedures and Resolution).

C503 Distributor's Assumption Agreement (a) If the Producer, its successors and assigns, licenses, sells, disposes or otherwise conveys any distribution rights in a Production produced under this Agreement, the Producer shall use its best efforts to obtain a Distributor's Assumption Agreement. In respect of any outright valid sale or conveyance hereunder, (i.e., a disposition, the terms of which, do not include a requirement to report revenue to a Producer) a Distributor's Assumption Agreement is a condition precedent to said sale or conveyance. The said Agreement shall be in the form attached as Appendix "I" (Distributor’s Assumption Agreement). (b) Upon seeking the approval of the Union to an assignment, license, sale, disposition or conveyance of distribution rights the Producer shall also provide to the Union such information and material pertaining to the Distributor, as the Union may reasonably require, including but not limited to, the financial status, the individual principals and directors of the Distributor, and the conditions of the Agreement of Purchase and Sale. (c) The Producer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations for payments due under this Agreement, unless the distributor to whom the distribution rights have been sold, assigned, or otherwise disposed of (the Distributor) assumes the obligations for such payments by a Distributor's Assumption Agreement in the form contained in Appendix "I", and the Union approves the assumption in writing. The Union's approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

C504 Administration Charge The Producer shall assist in defraying the cost of administering this section of the Agreement which involves the distribution of Use payments. The administration fee payable shall be one percent (1%) of the total amount to be distributed. The minimum administration charge shall be one hundred dollars ($100.00) per Program payable as an advance with the first Use Fee payment to be distributed by the Union.

C505 Security Agreement A Security Agreement in the form of Appendix "J" shall be provided to the Union, prior to the completion of principal photography and the Performance Bond provided under Article A415 shall not be released by the Union until the delivery of the said executed Security Agreement. When it is contemplated that the Production or Program will be distributed outside of the jurisdiction in which it is produced, the Union may request, and the Producer will provide, additional Security Agreements in forms which are registerable in the jurisdictions where, in the opinion of the Union, the Production or Program may be distributed.

C506 Re-Use Payments Forwarded to the Union All re-use payments, other than those made at the time of production, shall be forwarded directly to the Union for distribution to Performers.

APPENDIX “P”

FACT-BASED / LIFESTYLE AND DOCUMENTARY PROGRAMS

a) Definition - a Fact-Based/Lifestyle Production is a television Production with an average Budget below $250,000/$257,000 per half hour, on a non-fictional theme, excluding drama productions, Documentary Programs and game shows. Fact-based/Lifestyle shows include productions like home renovation, cooking, travel and reality programs. Examples of productions that fall under this definition include: The Lofters (reality program), Meet My Folks (reality contests), Canadian Idol (talent contests), A Wedding Story (fact-based reality), Trading Places (lifestyle reality), Exhibit “A” and 72 Hours. b) Inclusions: a. The host(s) and narrator(s) b. Judges or other experts who play an integral role in a production on three (3) or more Episodes in a calendar year. c. Any other distinct, recurring individual who plays an integral role in a production and appears in at least six (6) episodes. It is understood that once such a person is covered, the individual is not automatically covered on future episodes of a Series unless s/he continues to qualify. d. The Producer shall supply UBCP with a list of excluded individuals. c) Multiple Episodes: A Performer (other than Off-Camera Narrators and Commentators) may be contracted at no less than the applicable minimum daily fee to perform in three (3) Episodes to be produced per day of production. For each additional Episode produced on a day of production, the Performer will receive fifty (50%) percent of the applicable daily fee. For example, minimum performance fees for a Performer who appears in four (4) Episodes on a single day of production will be calculated at 150% of the applicable daily fee. d) Use Fees: All Performers engaged under this section would be entitled to Use Fees of 50% of Net Fees for the applicable period. Prior to the expiry of the period, the Producer would have the choice of paying an additional 50% of Net Fees and clearing another prepayment period or paying the 3.6% of DGR. Once the payment of 3.6% of DGR applies the Producer cannot revert back to the 50% formula. e) Existing Agreements: The Negotiating Producers and UBCP agree to advise its members that the contracts of Performers who are engaged in this genre under a predecessor to this agreement will be grandfathered. f) No Pyramiding: The Negotiating Producers and UBCP agree that there will be no pyramiding of discounts in this section. More specifically, Productions taking advantage of the terms of this section cannot access any fee discount(s) from any other section of this Agreement, including the BC Indie Program (Appendix “Q”).

Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

APPENDIX “P” g) Preamble to the Fact-based/Lifestyle section: As this is an emerging genre of production, the Parties agree to work together to encourage more production of this type under this Agreement.

DOCUMENTARY PROGRAMS

a) Regarding Excerpts for Documentary Programs, Article A3301 - addition of a subparagraph which is limited to Documentary Programs, that allows for a payment of $100 per excerpts of thirty (30) seconds or less up to the highest originally contracted daily fee or the current daily fee, whichever is greater. For clarity, the maximum payment for a Performer who appears in multiple excerpts within a single Production is the originally contracted daily fee or the current daily fee, whichever is greater. b) Exclusions: The Associations have proposed provisions for exceptions to the application of the collective agreement for persons appearing as themselves including UBCP members except when they are performing a role. c) A Performer participating on or off camera in a Documentary Program shall be entitled to Use Fees of fifty percent (50%) of the total Net Fees paid to the Performers for which the Producer is entitled to unlimited Use of the Production in all countries for five (5) years. At the expiry of such five (5) year period, the Producer would have the choice of clearing another five (5) year period or paying the 3.6% DGR. The election must be made prior to the end of the relevant five (5) year period. Once the 3.6% DGR applies, Production cannot revert back to the fifty percent (50%) for five (5) years. Note: for greater clarity, this Use Fee section does not apply to dramatic Productions such as Exhibit ‘A’ or 72 Hours. d) Furthermore, for tribute Documentary Programs, a Performer is entitled to waive any applicable interview fee required under the agreement at his or her discretion. A copy of the waiver is to be provided to UBCP.

APPENDIX “Q”

British Columbia Independent Production Incentive Program (“BC Indie Program”)

The modifications set out in this Appendix cover Performers engaged on eligible low budget projects.

1. Purpose (a) The purpose of the BC Indie Program is to encourage low budget Canadian film and television projects engaging professional Performers represented by UBCP. (b) To this end, Performers’ minimum fees under the British Columbia Master Production Agreement (“the BCMPA”) may be discounted in accordance with the Schedule of Discounts found below. (c) Productions fulfilling the conditions below are automatically eligible to benefit from the provisions of this Appendix. (d) This Appendix is not intended for and is not available to foreign service production directly or indirectly through a Canadian line production company or another Canadian agent.

2. Filing Procedure (a) Producers wishing to access the BC Indie Program must first be signatory to the BCMPA. (b) In all instances in which the BC Indie Program is silent, the terms and conditions of the BCMPA apply. (c) At least two (2) weeks in advance of principal photography, the Producer will provide to UBCP filing documents including a copy of the shooting script, detailed and certified Production and cast budgets, outlines of distribution arrangements (both extant and under negotiation), and full disclosure of all sources of financing for the project, together with confirmation of the Producer’s intent to access the BC Indie Program agreement. (d) A standard executed Security Agreement as per Appendix “J” of the BCMPA is required prior to principal photography.

3. Qualified Projects Those projects that qualify for the BC Indie Program shall be of the following nature and type: (a) New Projects Only: No projects that are in production or that have previously been in production under the BCMPA may access the terms contained herein. (b) Canadian Content: Projects must be able to qualify as Canadian content under the requirements of the Canadian Audio-Visual Certification Office (CAVCO) and/or the CRTC or as an official co-production as administered by Telefilm Canada. UBCP will consider in good faith a request from an official treaty co-production as administered by Telefilm Canada to access BC Indie provided that the total production budget meets the BC Indie budgetary thresholds, and that the Canadian partner holds majority ownership of the Production, with the majority of principal photography taking place in Canada. (c) Certified Budgets: Budgets of qualifying projects must be certified by a bonding company or a public agency such as Telefilm Canada or Creative BC. Where it is not possible to provide a certified budget, the Producer agrees to sign a statutory declaration that the budget submitted is the true and final budget. Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

(d) Open Market: Any project seeking qualification under the BC Indie Program cannot have its world distribution rights pre-sold to finance production, i.e., there must be meaningful open markets for distribution of a BC Indie Program-qualified project. Producers at the time of production shall make full disclosure to the UBCP in respect of any and all proposed licensing agreements or the like (including territory, term, and the amount of license fees, etc.). Allocation of revenue issues, if any, shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of Article C408. (e) Qualified Producer: To access the BC Indie Program, the Producer(s) of a project must be CMPA qualified.

4. Excluded Projects The BC Indie Program does not apply to the following types of projects: (a) industrial/corporate videos (b) all Productions of any type that are fifteen (15) minutes or less in length (c) Dubbing (d) Pilot Productions for which the Producer is utilizing Article B205 of the BCMPA unless the projected Budget for the series would qualify the Production for the benefits of this Appendix.

5. Series Producers seeking to avail themselves of this Appendix for Television Series must resubmit for each production cycle or season of such Series. Producers wishing to engage Performers on Series Option contracts must conform to the requirements of Article A801 of the BCMPA for Performers.

UBCP will consider in good faith a request that a non-Canadian Performer be the highest paid when such Performer is essential to financing. Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

7. Credits (a) Lead Actors will receive either: (i) up-front credits if the Producer receives such credits; or (ii) single-card billing in tail credits; or (iii) credit at the end of the Production that is no less prominent than for any other key personnel. (b) Lead Actors will receive equivalent credit in all print campaigns under the control of the Producer when any other key personnel receive credit. (c) The Producer shall include the UBCP logo on the credit or cast roll. UBCP will provide logos in electronic format.

8. Prior Notice and Right to Negotiate (a) Producers must give notice to Performers at the time of casting (through casting notices) that the Producer is seeking qualification of the project as a BC Indie Program project. Such notices shall not contain any statement that attempts to restrict the right of any Performer to negotiate terms (including rates and fees) and conditions in excess of the minimum fees, rates, and conditions.

9. Use Payments At the time of production, the Producer shall choose one (1) of the following options that requires payment of a corresponding percentage of Performers’ Net Fees as a non-refundable Advance against the Performers’ participation in Distributor’s Gross Revenue:

Non-refundable Participation in Option Number Advance Distributor’s Gross (% of Net Fees) Revenue 1 100.0% 5% 2 75.0% 6% 3 50.0% 7% 4 25.0% 8% 5 0.0% 9% 6 0.0% 10% (super-low budget features and MOWs)

10. Joint Administration The CMPA-BC agrees to administer the BC Indie Program in all facets jointly with UBCP on a principle of equality between UBCP and the CMPA-BC.

APPENDIX “R”

NEW MEDIA OPTIONS

R1 - DEFINITION, ADVANCE NEGOTIATION, SUNSET CLAUSE, PRODUCER OPTIONS, NEW MEDIA COMMITTEE, PROMOTION

R101 Producers may proceed under either Option A or Option B of this New Media section. In order to access Option B, the Production must be guaranteed by an Approved Distribution Guarantor as per Sideletter Number 2 or per the criteria set out below:

An Approved Distribution Guarantor shall mean an entity

(a) that has maintained a permanent active entity with established offices and staff for the previous six (6) years, and has produced or financed the production of at least eight (8) theatrical motion pictures or fifty-two (52) hours of television under this agreement or its predecessors; (b) that has had a good track record for payment of UBCP members, excluding minor infractions; and (c) that is up to date in its reporting obligations to UBCP and payments to UBCP members.

R102 For the purposes of this Appendix R, New Media is defined as all media currently known in the marketplace, other than those listed in Article A356.

R103 (a) Advance Negotiation of New Media At the request of either Party, this Appendix R may be negotiated in advance of the expiry of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no strike or lockout shall occur prior to the expiry of this Agreement.

(b) New Media Subcommittee The parties agree to establish a New Media Subcommittee which will meet expeditiously during the term of this Agreement and bargain in good faith for terms and conditions relating to New Media. Upon successful completion of the New Media Subcommittee’s negotiations, and approval by the respective full committees of the UBCP and the Negotiating Producers, the parties shall execute a Memorandum of Agreement containing proposed amendments to Appendix “R” and to any other provisions of the BCMPA, and shall ratify same as per the practices of the parties. Upon ratification, the amendments set out in the Memorandum of Agreement shall become effective.

Until such time as the Subcommittee successfully completes its negotiations and the respective full committees of the UBCP and the Negotiating Producers approve the agreement reached, the provisions of Appendix “R” of the 2015-2018 BCMPA shall remain in effect.

R104 Consultation Committee/New Media Committee (a) The Parties agree to establish a joint committee and engage a jointly agreed share-cost expert(s) to assist the Parties to research and monitor new media issues such as emerging technologies, platforms, geo-fencing, tracking new media revenue, licensing and distribution arrangements, and privacy concerns. If requested by both Parties, on Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

APPENDIX “R”

a without prejudice basis, the committee may also make recommendations regarding ways in which disputes regarding New Media may be resolved. (b) The Committee shall meet quarterly or more frequently, if needed. It is preferable for the Committee to meet in person, however, if necessary the Committee may be convened by conference call. (c) The Committee will present a report at a time to be determined by the Committee.

R105 Shared Cost for Expert(s): The Negotiating Producers and UBCP will share the cost of the expert(s) equally, meaning 50/50 between UBCP and the Negotiating Producers. Before incurring joint share costs the parties must agree to the third party expert as well as the topic research to be undertaken.

R106 Sunset Clause The New Media section shall sunset upon the expiry of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Productions commenced or any Performer contracts entered into during the term of this Agreement shall remain in force or have the ability to rely on the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding the agreement to a Sunset Clause.

R107 Promotion Promotion for New Media does not attract Use Fees. Any disputes in relation to Use Fees for New Media shall be referred to the Committee.

It is understood A3202 governs productions for promotional purposes.

R2 - OPTION A

R201 Use of Conventional Productions in New Media For Productions that have elected either the Prepayment Option (C301) or the Advance Option (C401) and that wish to make Use of the Production in any New Media, the Producer shall pay the amount of 3.6% of DGR as a separate revenue stream from first dollar.

R202 Retrospective Application To the extent additional consent is necessary, if requested by the Producer, UBCP agrees to use diligence in order to secure the consent of Performers appearing in Productions made under previous collective agreements to apply the terms of the New Media provision (per this Agreement) to the Use of those existing Productions in all New Media. UBCP agrees this Agreement shall not bar such retrospective application. By paying 3.6% of DGR the Producer may use Productions produced under a predecessor Agreement on any New Media platform.

R203 Content Made for New Media Platforms (a) Dramatic production: With respect to dramatic Production(s), for initial exhibition in the New Media, the producer may select one (1) of the following options:

Producer Option #1: . The minimum daily fee permits up to five (5) Productions to be produced in one (1) session, i.e., one (1) work day. . Such Productions must be held together by the same title, trade name or mark, identifying devices or common characters. . For each additional Production(s) produced beyond the five (5), the Producer shall Union of B.C. Performers – 2015-2018 B.C. Master Production Agreement

APPENDIX “R”

either i) pay an additional twenty-five percent (25%) per Production; or ii) pay an additional minimum daily fee which shall allow the Producer to produce up to five (5) additional Productions in that same session.

- OR -

Producer Option #2: . Where the Producer wishes to produce a single production five (5) minutes or less in duration at a session, the Performer shall be paid at least fifty percent (50%) of the daily minimum fee for a four (4) hour work call. The hourly rate shall be paid for each additional hour up to and including the eighth (8th) hour. Thereafter the overtime provisions of this Agreement shall apply.

(b) For all Productions other than dramatic Productions, the minimum daily fee is to be negotiated on a case-by-case basis between the Producer and UBCP.

(c) Use of Made for Content: (i) Upon payment of the minimum fees, the Producer is entitled to six (6) months Use worldwide in any New Media. (ii) Following the Declared Use period, the Producer shall pay 3.6% of DGR for Use in New Media. (iii) Conversion of Made for Content to a conventional Use: A Producer wishing to use content originally made for New Media may elect the Advance or Prepayment Option prior to making conventional Use of the Production(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, 3.6% of DGR continues to be paid for any ongoing New Media Use. Where the Prepayment Option is elected, the applicable Use period starts as of the date of Use on the conventional platform. Conventional use shall mean those Uses outlined in Article A356.

In lieu of electing the Advance or Prepayment Option, a Producer may pay 3.6% of DGR, as that term is defined in C4, for conventional Use of the Production(s). The exercise of the 3.6% DGR option shall be subject to the Union’s consent.* A Producer desiring to utilize this option shall so notify the Union.

*See Sideletter No. 12 for administration of the consent process.

(d) Excerpts: Content from one Production may be used in another Production as per Article A3301.

(e) Producer may edit material at a session to create a new Production upon payment of an additional twenty-five percent (25%) per Production. It is confirmed that, for the purposes of this section and consistent with past practice under this Agreement, “versioning” i.e., the editing of a Production for length does not constitute a new Production.

APPENDIX “R”

R3 - OPTION B

R301 Conventional Content Re-Purposed in the New Media Producer may exhibit any production in the New Media provided they agree to retroactively compensate UBCP on behalf of Performers who appear in these Productions for Use Fees ultimately negotiated between UBCP and the Negotiating Producers following any advance negotiation of the New Media Section of this Agreement.

R302 Content Made Initially for New Media Use The Producer and UBCP may negotiate the terms of engagement and Use in respect of Productions made initially for Use in the New Media provided that the Producer agrees to retroactively compensate the Performer(s) in respect of any Use Fees including conversion of Use to traditional (A356) media in accordance with the advance negotiation of the New Media Section of this Agreement referenced above, in so far as those newly negotiated provisions are superior.

R303 Retrospective Application To the extent additional consent is necessary, if requested by the Producer, and UBCP agrees to use diligence in order to secure the consent of Performers appearing in Productions made under previous collective agreements to apply the terms of the New Media provision (per this Agreement) to the Use of those existing Productions in all New Media. UBCP agrees this Agreement shall not bar such retrospective application.

Producers may exhibit any production in the New Media provided they agree to retroactively compensate UBCP on behalf of Performers who appear in these productions for Use Fees ultimately negotiated between UBCP and the Negotiating Producers following any advance negotiation of the New Media Section of this Agreement.

R304 Record Keeping and Disputed Use The Producer shall ensure that records are maintained so as to ensure that such retroactive compensation is payable, if any.

In the event that UBCP wishes to dispute a Use that is made under this Option, it shall notify the Producer. During the currency of this Section, there shall be no grievances filed in respect of any disputed Use. Any disputes that remain unresolved following any advance negotiation period may be referred to arbitration in accordance with Article A10; UBCP and the Producer shall not raise time limits under this Agreement as a bar to any such referral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to be considered valid, notice of dispute shall be served on the Producer not more than sixty (60) days from the date on which UBCP knew of the facts giving rise to the dispute.

R305 Interest on Retroactive Payment, if any It is understood any monies deemed to be owing following the negotiation with regard to retroactive payments shall be paid at the agreed rate plus interest fixed at a rate of prime plus one percent (1%) as calculated on the monthly posted Bank of Canada rate. For greater clarity, retroactivity, if any, shall be owing for Use made following ratification of this Agreement and shall be calculated from the first Use in the New Media, which occurs post- ratification.

Whereas ______("the Producer") intends to produce a Production entitled ______("the Production");

And whereas the Producer is a Party to the 2015-2018 BC Master Production Agreement (“BCMPA”) covering Performers in Independent Production between the Canadian Media Production Association – BC Producers’ Branch (“CMPA-BC”) and the Canadian Affiliates of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (“AMPTP”), on the one hand, and the Union of BC Performers, on the other hand.

And whereas, pursuant to Article A415 of the BCMPA, UBCP is entitled to require that a Producer place security in the form of a cash deposit or letter(s) of credit at the time, in an amount, and in the manner set out in the BCMPA, unless a Production Guarantee in this form signed by an Approved Production Guarantor is accepted by UBCP;

And whereas UBCP has accepted the Guarantor as an Approved Production Guarantor;

Now therefore the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1.

3. UBCP shall have the unilateral right to terminate this Agreement and revert to the requirements of Article A415(b) or (c) of the BCMPA if the payment of any amount guaranteed herein is in default for more than fourteen (14) days after the Guarantor has been served with the demand provided for in Paragraph 2 herein.

4.

5. The termination of this Agreement by UBCP pursuant to paragraph 3 herein shall in no way annul, terminate, or otherwise affect the obligations of the Guarantor with respect to any amounts accruing prior to the date of such termination by UBCP, subject to paragraph 4 herein.

6. If UBCP terminates this Agreement pursuant to paragraph 3 herein, the Producer shall, within forty- eight (48) hours of receipt of written notice of such termination, post security in the form of a cash deposit or letter(s) of credit in accordance with Article A415(a) of the BCMPA. If there is any dispute as to the amount owing by the Producer, or whether any amount is owing at all, the Producer will nevertheless pay the sum set out in such notice to UBCP in trust, and UBCP will hold such sum in trust in an interest bearing account. Within five (5) days of such dispute being resolved, UBCP will refund to the Producer any sums determined to be in excess of what was owing by the Producer, along with accrued interest.

4. Nothing herein is intended, nor shall it be construed, to impose any greater obligations on the Guarantor than would apply to a Producer under the terms and conditions of the BCMPA.
